Bills vs Redskins Preview 2010 Preseason Week 1

First of all, the Buffalo Bills will need to get used to seeing Donovan McNabb in a Washington Redskins uniform. "It's going to look funny," linebacker Kawika Mitchell said, "having him in that white or burgundy."

Once that is out of the way, the Bills hope to start a new chapter in their franchise by actually getting something meaningful accomplished in a preseason game when they visit the Redskins on Friday night.

Buffalo's starters scored just three points in 15 series during last year's 1-4 preseason, leading to the dismissal of the offensive coordinator 10 days before the regular season opener. It was no surprise, therefore, that the Bills stumbled to another losing season - 6-10 - and out of the playoffs for the 10th straight year.

"I felt last year's preseason was horrible," quarterback Trent Edwards said. "I'd throw that out and say that right now, that we didn't do what we needed to do. We weren't in rhythm."

Horrible was also a good word to describe the Redskins' 4-12 season, making Friday's game the first step in a cleansing of sorts for both teams, the debut of new faces and new concepts all across the field.

 

Mike Shanahan is the new Redskins coach. Chan Gailey is the new Bills coach. Both teams are installing a 3-4 defense. Both have questions at receiver and offensive line. McNabb is trying to master a new offensive scheme for the first time since he was a rookie, while Edwards is trying to maintain his edge in a three-way quarterback competition.

The Redskins starters will likely play the standard one quarter or so that has become the norm for the first preseason game, but the Bills first-teamers might be out there a while longer.

"I told our team (to) anticipate if you're a starter that you would play maybe a little bit longer than you would have in a normal situation because we're learning new schemes," Gailey said. "We have a new offense, new defense, new special teams. You might have to go a little bit longer so we can get a feel for each other."

The game is also the first under-the-spotlight chance for a bubble player to make a case for a roster spot, or for a player hoping a starting job to show he's worth a place at the top of the depth chart. The Redskins will unveil No. 4 overall draft pick Trent Williams at left tackle, while the Bills are working in No. 9 selection C.J. Spiller, although the versatile running back is playing catch-up after holding out for the first 11 days of training camp.

The Redskins will also trot out Albert Haynesworth, who is working as a second-string nose tackle after missing the first nine days of camp because he couldn't pass the team's conditioning test. It's not the norm for a two-time All-Pro with a $100 million contract to see much action in the first preseason game - especially as a backup - but the Redskins aren't about to let Haynesworth forget how he dissed the team during the offseason.

Yet the player highest on the curiosity meter for fans will be McNabb, who is more concerned with getting his new offense to function properly and less about his reception from the crowd.

Skooby you are the old Skooby aren't you? Starting the gameday threads 12 hours before kick off, he used to do it too. He used to post everytime he farted too. Modus operandi is the same. you go on ignore.

And if you quote an article you should credit it and link.

How's the car holding up Skoobs? Still make time to talk to Steve Fairchild?

The fact that the Bills' starters AKA Trent Edwards couldn't score in the preseason explains why Trent was later benched in the regular season. Hopefully when Trent can't score with the starters in the first preseason game in 2010, and the "backup" QB's do score like in 2009, Gailey will have enough sense to change the "pecking order".

LSI used to do same. I wonder how he's doing? - I thought him a decent young chap, albeit a bit on the (innocent) rambunctious side.

I really loved the guy who said he was knowledgeable because he went to an "ivy-league level" college and that he once spent a bus ride talking with a janitor. What a man amongst boys!

 

Right now my personal fave is SouthGeorgiaBillsFan - simply because he's an absolute idiot.

How about giving credit to the person who actually wrote that.

It is preseason. Skoob is still working on his gameday thread skills. How about giving a channel and affiliate the game can be found on locally in WNY? Is it ABC, channel 7?

Starting game day threads more than a few minutes before kick-off is a known jinx. :worthy:

 

Are you saying starting them a few minutes before has *helped* our game? :thumbsup:

 

:beer:

 

As I posted on Fb when I woke up, I'm like a kid in a candy store! Can 7:30 just get here already?
